Moon Dark (Auriano Curse Series Book 1)
A deadly stiletto slices through the Venetian night, and Lady Sabrina Barclay narrowly escapes death, saved by a shadowy figure. Her secret errand, forced upon her by her devious and tyrannical uncle-in-law, has gone awry, leaving her fearful that he will cast her and her young son out of his home. Who tried to kill her? And what is the enigmatic being that saved her?
Alessandro, Prince of Auriano, lives under a curse that condemns him to exist as a shadow for half of each month, deprived of all sense of touch, taste, and smell. When he saves the Englishwoman from an assassin’s blade, he is captivated by her beauty and shocked by his ability to feel her touch. Could she hold the key to breaking the ancient curse that binds him and his family?
As Sabrina encounters Alessandro in his human form, she is irresistibly drawn to his dark, seductive allure, unaware that he is her shadowy savior. Alessandro, equally entranced by Sabrina, senses a hidden strength within her and an extraordinary power that might free him and his family from their half-life existence. Bound by destiny, they must outwit the malevolent forces pursuing them and succumb to a passion that neither can deny.
